#' @include reactive-domains.R NULL #' @include reactives.R NULL #' Get the query string / hash component from the URL #' #' Two user friendly wrappers for getting the query string and the hash #' component from the app's URL. #' #' These can be particularly useful if you want to display different content #' depending on the values in the query string / hash (e.g. instead of basing #' the conditional on an input or a calculated reactive, you can base it on the #' query string). However, note that, if you're changing the query string / hash #' programatically from within the server code, you must use #' `updateQueryString(_yourNewQueryString_, mode = "push")`. The default #' `mode` for `updateQueryString` is `"replace"`, which doesn't #' raise any events, so any observers or reactives that depend on it will #' *not* get triggered. However, if you're changing the query string / hash #' directly by typing directly in the browser and hitting enter, you don't have #' to worry about this. #' #' @param session A Shiny session object. #' #' @return For `getQueryString`, a named list. For example, the query #' string `?param1=value1¶m2=value2` becomes `list(param1 = #' value1, param2 = value2)`. For `getUrlHash`, a character vector with #' the hash (including the leading `#` symbol). #' #' @seealso [updateQueryString()] #' #' @examples #' ## Only run this example in interactive R sessions #' if (interactive()) { #' #' ## App 1: getQueryString #' ## Printing the value of the query string #' ## (Use the back and forward buttons to see how the browser #' ## keeps a record of each state) #' shinyApp( #' ui = fluidPage( #' textInput("txt", "Enter new query string"), #' helpText("Format: ?param1=val1¶m2=val2"), #' actionButton("go", "Update"), #' hr(), #' verbatimTextOutput("query") #' ), #' server = function(input, output, session) { #' observeEvent(input$go, { #' updateQueryString(input$txt, mode = "push") #' }) #' output$query <- renderText({ #' query <- getQueryString() #' queryText <- paste(names(query), query, #' sep = "=", collapse=", ") #' paste("Your query string is:\n", queryText) #' }) #' } #' ) #' #' ## App 2: getUrlHash #' ## Printing the value of the URL hash #' ## (Use the back and forward buttons to see how the browser #' ## keeps a record of each state) #' shinyApp( #' ui = fluidPage( #' textInput("txt", "Enter new hash"), #' helpText("Format: #hash"), #' actionButton("go", "Update"), #' hr(), #' verbatimTextOutput("hash") #' ), #' server = function(input, output, session) { #' observeEvent(input$go, { #' updateQueryString(input$txt, mode = "push") #' }) #' output$hash <- renderText({ #' hash <- getUrlHash() #' paste("Your hash is:\n", hash) #' }) #' } #' ) #' } #' @export getQueryString <- function(session = getDefaultReactiveDomain()) { parseQueryString(session$clientData$url_search) } #' @rdname getQueryString #' @export getUrlHash <- function(session = getDefaultReactiveDomain()) { session$clientData$url_hash }
